Toss the OTC meds for common colds! Synthetically suppressing cold symptoms could not only bring about other illnesses like liver disease and kidney issues, but it prevents the body from properly healing and doing its job of ridding itself of phlegm and germs and fills your children's bodies with dangerous artificial dyes weakening the immune system and actually lengthening the life of the virus.

This winter and flu season try this DIY organic decongestant recipe. It is sure to come in handy and naturally relieve nasal congestion and help to clear/break up mucus that settles in the back of the throat and in the chest.

When my children get colds and noses get stuffy, I mix 1 heaping tablespoon of coconut oil and 8-9 drops of Eucalyptus Essential Oil in a bowl and rub on their chest and place a warm heating pad (or warm washcloth) over the chest for about 10-15 minutes before they go to bed. This mixture was especially great when my daughter suffered from asthma in her younger years but works just as fabulous for adults too.

AMAZINGTIP:A great tip many people aren't aware of is to also take the same mixture and rub on the bottoms of feet and slip on a pair of thick cozysocks. Whenthe mixture is applied to feet, it settles coughs throughout the night so you or your little one can get a good night's rest.

After one to two nights of applying this mixture, you will probably begin to cough quite heavily as the mucus will begin to break up and loosen. Encourage your children to cough out the phlegm and spit (preferrably into the toilet to prevent the spreading of germs) to help speed up the healing process.

Just another PHENOMENAL use for coconut oil!

Works wonders for adults as well. Please spot test prior to use for allergies and don't use more eucalyptus oil than suggested or can cause skin irritation.

Let me know if this works just as well for you as it does for our family and pass along this flu season! M.

Its such as you learn my thoughts! You seem to understand a lot about this, such as you wrote the e book in it or something.
I think that you simply can do with a few p.c.
to power the message home a little bit, but instead of that, that is great blog.

An outstanding share! I have just forwarded this onto a co-worker who has been conducting a little research on this.
And he actually bought me lunch simply because I found it
for him… lol. So let me reword this…. Thanks for the meal!!
But yeah, thanx for spending the time to talk about this topic
here on your web page.

My partner and I stumbled over here coming from a different web page and thought I may as well check things out.
I like what I see so i am just following you. Look forward to checking out your web page again.

Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
The words in your content seem to be running off the screen in Internet explorer.
I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with
browser compatibility but I figured I’d post
to let you know. The design look great though!

When I initially commented I seem to have clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and from now on whenever
a comment is added I receive four emails with the same
comment. Perhaps there is a means you can remove me from that service?

Good day! This is my first visit to your blog! We are a group of volunteers and starting a new initiative
in a community in the same niche. Your blog provided us beneficial
information to work on. You have done a outstanding job!

Do you have a spam issue on this site; I also am a blogger, and I was curious about your situation; many
of us have developed some nice practices and
we are looking to swap strategies with others, please shoot me an e-mail if interested.

We are a bunch of volunteers and opening a brand new scheme
in our community. Your web site provided us with useful info to work on. You’ve done a formidable task and
our whole group might be grateful to you.

May I simply say what a relief to find a person that genuinely knows what they’re discussing on the net.
You actually know how to bring an issue to light and make it important.
More and more people have to check this out and understand this side of
the story. It’s surprising you are not more popular because you most certainly possess the gift.

Howdy! Do you know if they make any plugins to assist with Search Engine Optimization? I’m trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I’m not seeing very good gains. If you know of any please share. Many thanks!|
